One of Th Talad Gao's
noblest historic buildings has been turned into a stylish boutique hotel. The eight rooms,
located above a cafe and ice cream shop, share a fun retro design theme and bathrooms,
although some lack windows and feel somewhat claustrophobic. Avoid this by requesting
one of the more expensive balcony rooms.

If you're going upscale, this is Lampang's best choice. The lobby is taste-

rooms. Deluxe rooms feature an added sitting area and walk-in closet, and the hotel's at-
tractive outdoor dining area with carp pond is a classy, natural touch.
